If you like peanut butter as much as I do, when the Peanut Butter Boy invites you to help host The Great Peanut Butter Exhibition, well, you don’t turn him down!
I’m honored to co-host this exciting recipe roundup and competition for the second time along with Spices Bites, and Feerless Food. Yes, get that creativity cooking because I said — competition! We have an incredible prize package sponsored by the famous Peanut Butter & Co.!
The theme for this round is Fruits and Veggies. Summer is near and nothing accompanies it better than fresh produce. And we say nothing accompanies produce better than peanut butter. So we want to know the most imaginative fruit and/or veggie combination for peanut butter you can come up with. This is a wide open theme so get creative, just make sure you get some fruits or veggies in there!
To enter, submit your best peanut butter (or substituted nut butter for those with allergies) recipe following the guidelines below. Of course, I encourage the use of natural peanut butter or those made with minimially refined sugars or similar ingredients. The more real food used the better!
The deadline is Monday, June 21st @ Noon (EST) which gives over 2 weeks (and 3 weekends) to brainstorm, develop and create a fruit or veggie peanut butter combo that will put you in the running for one cool prize!
Judging Criteria:
Uniqueness, Peanut Butter Weight, Presentation and Preparation Time
Rules:
- Post and submit your “Fruit and Veggie” recipe by the deadline.

hmmm I’ll have to think on this one
OMG I love PB! Okay does the recipe have to be fruits and veggies together? Or can I do a recipe that is just veggies or just fruit?
I’m excited! I already have an idea in my head!
Andrea – Just one or the other, or you can do both. Your pick! 🙂
A fun contest with peanut butter!
Great contest. I need to think about this, but I think I have a good idea.
Alright. I need to do this! I love PB+Co! I love peanut butter! Thinking cap is now…ON.
